"YOUR" Icon added to internet security settings

Hello all,

I installed some new programs one was free ram xp by yourware?

Now I have a security setting added to my internet settings "YOUR" that I cannot set or remove even after removing free ram from my HDD.

I will try the Malware removal procedure by chaslang? I hope I spelled the name correctly.

I was wondering if anyone has had this problem ("YOUR" added to internet security settings?)

It also drops my security for Internet to the lowest setting.

Thank you

 

Hi chaslang,

I will post when finished.

First, I have not been able to boot to SAFE mode yet it freezes during the loading description of drivers etc.

Second, "YOUR" is now a "Zone"(red circle crossed out)to the right of "Restricted"

This appears to be a very nasty.

Leave it to me to find the bad ones !

Back to post later, I hope.

I have aquired a distaste for format and reload. (last resort)

Thanks!

p.s. I saw "Mavericks Matrix" in earlier scan.

 

I have been up all night.
In one of my scans "Show New" (or) "Get Run key" I found....
"Mavericks Matrix"

It is still there.

I have regained control of my PC for now.
It is changing things everywhere.

We are not amused. well maybe a little.

I will get some sleep and run the READ ME apps Properly.

Will this garbage damage my PC??????

Should I format or can I play with it awhile????

Thanks

Mr. C

 

The scans showed nothing, but I did notice the title "Maverick's Matrix" unfortunately I am unable to post as they are stuck on the laptop in question.

It gets better my Multi DVD/CD Burner and USB's are now not being recognized.

Checked BIOS.

So I am not able to do a format.

I am unable to save, Back ups do not work.

Lucky for me I back up daily to separate media.

I am unable to update drivers on web at all, I get blocked by Error messages I will note the error names for next post.

But so far I am still amused.

I will try to format by attaching a CD ROM to another port.

If this is a program written by someone hire them quick, Luke use the Force!!

Thank you

Back later.

 

I think I will try DOS.

I have formatted more than a few times.

Thank you chaslang.

 

I was able to use System Back-up in safe mode.

Laptop is back up, but I lost some logs.
Should I post what I have or run the "READ ME" again?

Mr. C

 

I finally got rid of it for now.

A normal format and reload will not remove it it will hide in the partition walls and RAM.

Title: Mavericks Matrix
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
A Trojan horse is a malicious program that is disguised as legitimate software. Trojan horse programs cannot replicate themselves, whereas viruses can do so. A backdoor is a method to gain unauthorized access to a system. It can be a separate program, or code embedded in another program.

Mavericks Matrix is a backdoor Trojan affecting Microsoft Windows operating systems. It spreads by manual installation. When executed, Mavericks Matrix copies its backdoor server, matrix.exe, to the Windows System directory. It modifies the registry, or the system.ini and win.ini files, depending on the version of Windows running, so that the backdoor server runs whenever Windows starts up. The backdoor server default opens TCP port 1269 on the victim machine.

A remote attacker can use the Mavericks Matrix client to gain unauthorized access to the victim system. The attacker can then perform such operations as: upload or download files, execute commands, restart Windows, control the mouse, send messages, get information about the infected system, and get passwords.

Mavericks Matrix has many variants dated from May, 1999 to July, 2004.

Affected Products:
Microsoft Windows Undisclosed

I was told the only way to be sure I got rid of Mavericks Matrix was to,

Remove the partitions then remove the power source so it would not be able to hide in the partition or the RAM, nor would it be formatted to the floor.

Then allow a complete format and partition in this way it could not be written to the floor (format)

As you say Ram is Volitile it needs power to hold data.

I am not talented enough to properly explain myself yet, in time.

chaslang, Thank you for your help!
I know it is appreceiated by all those that you help!!
